Blurb Verse

"And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us."

Romans 5:3-5

Cognitive Dysfunction & Fibromaylgia

Do you struggle with fibromyalgia and have a bad memory? Do you find it difficult sometimes to be able to get a whole thought out before it disappears? It could be linked to your fibromyalgia.

New research suggests that fibromyalgia patients perform more poorly than the counterparts of their age, in three areas:
1. Free recall: remembering words
2. Working Memory: everyday info
3. Vocabulary tests - accessing words from memory

Research also suggests that blood pressure, anxiety and depression have no effect on fibromyalgia patient's cognitive abilities.

Sad news: There is currently nothing available to help improve this.

However, there is some hope: Here's some tips that may help us as we battle our own cognition:

1. Establish regular routines: Eat and sleep at the same time regularly.
2. Snack every three hours, rather than eating full meals.
3. Use reminders and to-do-lists.
4. Take breaks when you find your concentration waning.
5. Avoid multitasking, as it reduces your effectiveness.
6. Pace, pace, pace.
7. Avoid loud noises, bright lights and other distractions in your environment, particularly where you sleep.

There is some exciting research on PubMed relating to FM and mineral deficiency. In my practice as a holistic nurse, there is often skepticism until people are desperate. Then they come to me.

Usually the response is how come my doc never told me about this. As my last arthritis patient said, she has not had to go back as she no longer has pain. Thus the answer why they do not tell people about what I teach.

I digress. The mental fog or lack of mental clarity can be easily fixed for most. It is often what nurses would call fluid and electrolyte imbalance: less than bodies needs. We need both water and electrolytes to have proper brain function.

Thus, here are several studies showing either the lack of minerals and the association with FM or providing minerals and the relief of FM symptoms. Several of the studies are here.... http://www.watercures.org/fibromyalgia-mineral-deficiency.html

We have long known that the water cures protocol works for FM. It is just hard to get people to try it. Once they do, it usually works. Now there is scientific proof.

To work, it has to be unprocessed sea salt so that the various minerals are present.

The protocol is here...http://www.watercures.org/water-cure.html and it is free for the trying. The founder of the site is telling the world about it so those who cannot afford health care can get some relief.

I found it when I was looking for a different sort of information but I am very interested in the article, It is nice to read such kind of good posts I like your work keep it up!Pain Management Chicago

Fibromyalgia is a sad and hard disease that can affect people memories and relationships with others, such as family, friends, coworkers, or any other person around them, life decisions, and the current way of living.The tips you mention in your blog are very good. I did a small research on fibromylagia and it seems to agee with you. People need to start getting enough sleep, reduce stress in their daily lives, exercise, not multitask, make a treatment plan with their doctor, take their everyday medications, make a new healthy lifestyle, and maintain a good relationship with their love ones (Staff, Mayo Clinic). Moreover, physical therapy, therapeutic massage, light aerobics, heat or cold pads, water therapy, yoga, relaxation exercises, breathing techniques, osteopathic or chiropractic manipulation, and many other practices can help fibromyalgia’s patients to get better with the passage of time and keep their memory working well. (National Fibromyalgia Association).

Wow, I have definitely experience these cognitive symptoms. However...as a middle school teacher, most of those tips are nearly impossible to follow. I can't stop to eat a snack in the middle of class. I can't take a break when there are 25 thirteen year old students in the room. Avoid multitasking?? Multitasking effectively is the essence of being a good teacher! Pace, pace, pace...40 minutes of class, 3 minutes to pick up the room and maybe dash to the bathroom, then 40 minutes of class again, repeat all day. And avoid loud noises and bright nights?? I don't turn on all the lights in the room, and on sunny days, I don't have them on at all. As far as loud noises -- I'll just tell my administrator that I can't do hallway monitoring anymore. I'm sure he'll understand (...not likely...)
